Where to fly a drone in Jacksonville

Last verified Nov 9, 2026 · 6 spots

Jacksonville in short

Jacksonville's best options are FAA-recognized club fields north and south of town. The Timucuan Preserve is National Park Service land where drones are banned, and Little Talbot Island and other state parks are off limits too. Naval air stations and Jacksonville International add controlled airspace.

Local rules and airspace

Florida law preempts local drone ordinances, but the City of Jacksonville can set takeoff and landing rules on its own property. We haven't found a published city park drone rule, so check with the park before you fly.
